it's super clear just you don't read it! Which booking class code you have? I really don't get it what is super confusing for you in this case : )

I think you need to pick up your fare class/category. As long as it's not light, It does not matter, if it's Smart or Ultra Smart or other but it matters what's the class. Cheaper will be discounted, more expensive will be economy.

What people here are saying is that the "regardless of booking class" is to be read in conjunction with the "No miles can be earned on SAS Go Light booking classes.".
I.e.:
Do you hold any SK ticket in booking class I, X, N, F, R, Τ, Ο or do you hold a SK ticket with the ticket type "Sas Go ligh" regardless of booking class? Then you earn zero points.
Do you hold any other SK ticket you will earn according to the booking class letter, regardless of the ticket type.
Don't get confused by Aegean "Class of Service" denomination. They are monikers in order to justify the amount of points you earn. "Why does W earn 75% and V only earn 50%? Because V is what we define as a discounted economy ticket."

Just performed a short experiment:
Last week:
AMS-OSL Go Light (H) - 0 miles
OSL-AMS Go Light (H) - bid to upgrade confirmed - 0 miles
This Week:
AMS-OSL Go Smart (Q) - bid to upgrade confirmed - 447 miles
OSL-AMS Go Smart (M) - not yet flown
So, it seems it is as announced. No Go Light fare earns, irrespective of booking class. Miles only according to underlying fare, not the upgrade.
